We Use Sports to Jumpstart
Change and Spark Joy
Through the power of play, we unite people with and without intellectual disabilities to
create a more connected community. Our programs transform athletes into leaders,
and promote acceptance, unity, and respect throughout Northern California.
As a Special Olympics chapter, we pride ourselves on driving progress locally, while taking part in a bigger movement toward a more inclusive world.
